Three points on PP in win Larkin scored a goal and added two assists, all on the power play, in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Senators.

Impact The Red Wings continue to sizzle with the man advantage, and Larkin has been at the heart of the team's potent power-play performance.

Impact Larkin came up empty on seven shots, but he delivered the primary apple to Alex DeBrincat for his new linemate's second goal of the game. While it may take some time for the duo to get into synch on a consistent basis, Larkin finally has a top-line cohort who can take enough pressure off him to make a tangible difference game in and game out.
